Irrespective of all recent advances, the world has still not been able to utilize herbal options to an optimum level despite of availability of the plants locally and very easily portraying the hypoglycemic activity. The review provides a holistic view about various herbal antidiabetic options as well as the prospects with herbal drugs and their potential advantages keeping their pharamacological and phytochemical evaluation acting as the basis of their selection and incorporation, and areas of improvement.
